Why I did it
According to the design, the database instances of DPU will be kept in the NPU host.
Microsoft ADO (number only): 25072889
How I did it
To follow the multiple ASIC design, I assume a new platform environment variable NUM_DPU will be defined in the /usr/share/sonic/device/$PLATFORM/platform_env.conf. Based on this number, NPU host will launch a corresponding number of instances for the DPU database.
